With how orchestrated concerts have become Jack and Meg are a god send to true music fans that need the thrill of a live show. My favorite stripes moment was a medley they played that night of When I hear my name --> Icky thump --> when i hear my name. I have a crappy bootleg copy of the show, but I always find myself going back to that moment. It is not a technically perfect version of either song, but the power that is harnessed by the performance just touched me. I have seen so many shows and very few moments stand out like that (or bands). It is right up there with hearing Neil Young play "Hey Hey My My" in a thunder and lightning storm. They are true innovators. Thank you, Adam I saw the white stripes at the patriot center in Fairfax virginia while they were touring for Icky Thump.

Not a White Stripes song per se, but I love 'Portland, Oregon' from the Loretta Lynn album that Jack White produced and played on. As far as songs recorded by the White Stripes, '300 MPH Torrential Outpour Blues' is one of my favorites. I’ve never seen the White Stripes live.

It was during the "White Blood Cells" tour which is the first time I saw them perform.

So I will explain why I love the song Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground. This is the first song I liked by the white stripes, I saw the video for Fell in love With a Girl and the video was cool, I just did not like the song at first. Not too long later I heard the song Dead Leaves and I was dumb founded because I didn't expect such a different sounding song from this new band (new to me). I expected another uptempo rocker because most bands are stuck in one feel for most of their whole album let alone all of their singles. I knew there was something different about this band when I heard this song and I had to learn more about these two pale kids. This was the start to my obsession with the stripes.
